I think my Viewsonic VA712 won`t take it ....

[Jaskanwar Singh]

please fill the pc build questionnaire template so that we can suggest you a good config!

Say no to viewsonic. Go lg or samsung or dell.
Is gaming and video your main purpose? If so then look for a monitor with 16:9 aspect ratio. For everything else there is 16:10. Monitor should have response time of less than 5ms. Look for dvi port.

Dude Jaskanwar (& others) !!!

Dnt remember me ???
I had asked u guys to suggest an i7 rig ....
Filled out templates, discussed & decided everything ....
But at the last moment I had to suffer a budget cut ....

NOW Max 50k ...

I hav decided pretty much everything ...
Just want u guys help 4 the mobo ....

Also I have one query ...
I have never built a rig b4 myself ...
N my dad is discouraging me 4m doing that ...
But I really want to do it n learn ....
Is it really hard to build one ???
Can I do it ???

 

[coderunknown]

^^ not hard at all. its really fun, specially if you have another techie & ready to help friend by your side. this how i assembled my complete system in less than 30min. try it out.

 

[Gollum]

I saw my system being built twice the third time when i got a new cabinet i disassembled and assembled the whole computer myself. The motherboard manual is your best friend in this case; even if you are a total newbie to this. Plugs fit in sockets only in one direction so if it does not fit then you are doing it wrong.

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

your requirement is gaming?
and redlofredlof is right, mobo manual is your best friend..it helps a lot?

i am not able to remember..can you give a link to your previous thread.

 

[vizkid2005]

@ Jas : no point in remembering those memories .... Alas !! I can`t buy an i7 now ...

But still luking at the positive side ... I can Buy an i5

But plz guys suggest me a decent mobo for i5 ....
Is Asus P7P55D gud ???
It luks promising to me ...

Also Plz keep giving me tips like what all to remember while assembling ....

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

you still didnt ans. my ques. i had asked if you want it for gaming?

a tip from my side - just keep calm. its a lot of fun. like you i was also very afraid but while assembling i noticed it was fun and easy!

 

[rajan1311]

first see what you are looking for in a Mobo, then see your options. These days, almost all motherboards are good, just sometimes the quality goes bad, but chances are pretty low.

So again, first see what you need,then what fits in that budget,then brand/service.

 

[vizkid2005]

@ jas :
Yeah ... probably gaming ie: running current and future games at decent resolution without glitches or lagging ....

Also :
1. is anti static wristband and mat necesary ???

 

[rajan1311]

no, just make sure you touch the side of the cabinet to discharge off all the static. Avoid doing it on a carpet, basically, make sure no static charge else you can fry your system with a 11000V jolt

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

^^rajan kyu use dara raha hai?

anyways just touch the sides of a cabinet. dont get afraid after reading rajan's post

Intel Core i5 760 @ 9.8k
MSI P55-GD65 @ 7.9K or MSI P55-GD55 @ 6.6k(if you wont SLI or CF in future)
G.skill 2 * 2GB DDR3 1333MHz @ 4.6k
Sapphire Radeon HD6870 @ 14.6k(will be here soon)
WD 500GB Blue @ 1.8k
Corsair TX750W @ 7k(if SLI or CF), Corsair VX550W @ 4.7k
CM Elite 430 @ 2.6k
Benq G2220HD @ 7.3k

without SLI or CF option costs 52k

 

[rajan1311]

hehe,did not mean to, this generally never happens...

 

[vizkid2005]

@ jas :

I am planning to build the rig within next two weeks ....
At my vendor Sapphire HD5850 1 gb is 15.2 k ... Msi Cyclone GTX 460 1 gb is 13.2 k ...
I don`t think sapphire hd6870 will be any cheaper and won`t be available till next week ...

What should I do ???
I ain`t gonna wait for 6870 just for a few gains in fps ...

@ rajan :
Plz yaar aisa bol ke dara mat ...
Yeah .. But touching the sides of the cabby will simply put the charge on the cabby ...
Oh yeah the power supply ka ground is connected to the cabby ... So charge from body to cabby ... cabby to power supply ... power supply to ground ....
Ingenius !!!

Also I saw in one vid that a grounding point is supplied with the cabby and that point has to be tightend with the screws u put on the mobo while attaching it to the cabby ???

Won`t this shot the mobo ???

 

[ssb1551]

^^go for HD5850!!

 

[asingh]

What grounding is this guy talking about..???

Why you getting a 650W supply..?

 

[coderunknown]

grounding of household wiring. thats connected to the PSU through the cable. i guess this what he talking about.

 

[rajan1311]

you can get a 5850 for 11k in the 2nd hand market,3 months old, carries local warranty...

 

[Gollum]

Grounding means earth wire connection. In the event of a short circuit the large short circuit current produced is taken out of the computer cabinet through the psu to the house' earth plate. Without an earth connection your computer will definately go kaput.
